Most of the bad reviews are not even for this company. They are for a different gym called Spa…read moreLady that used to be in this same building. The new gym, GYMVMT is one of the best I've ever worked out at. They don't nickel and dime you by charging extra on top of your membership for all the things you would want to use. Athletic training / turf zone, included, infra-red sauna, scientifically proven to be better than the stone ones, included, classes included, sessions with a trainer included, body composition tests included, most or all of these things are extra at most gyms. I love that every Wednesday they have a maintenance crew that comes through and fixes all the machines or anything else that needs it so things are always working. I've been to gyms where equipment was broken down and not able to be used for months. This place is also extremely clean. Never seen any place with as many people in and out as this one gym or otherwise that is this clean all the time. The staff are the best part. Everyone is so helpful and friendly it makes it easy to keep coming back. If you want a good gym that gives you the best value for your money I've ever seen, this is the one for you. Also ladies, there is a full ladies gym, not one of those tiny ladies areas some gyms have a full sized club attached. I can't go in as a guy, but have heard all about it from some ladies that are members and it sounds like it's just as good as the co-Ed part I get to use there. Definitely recommend.

Here are my reasons: (1) absolutely no customer service as it relates to your policies. You have access to an email that goes to who knows where and no one really knows whats going on; (2) in connection with item #1, they adopt and enforce absolutely ridiculous policies. I was a member of the Vancouver branch and wanted to transfer to the Calgary branch. I was told this was impossible. Instead, my options were to "upgrade" my membership at double the monthly rate or cancel my Vancouver membership, re-enroll with Calgary and pay the initial joining fee again; (3) there's no water fountain. This one is actually extremely bizarre. How can it even be legal to permit people to work out in an environment where dehydration can only be mitigated by waiting for some guy to finish his business in the washroom so that you can desperately access to sink taps? I know its a "no frills" gym but, Fit 4 Less, is a water fountain really a "frill"? At this point, your members may even settle for a garden hose attached in the alley. Don't sign up with this gym. I realize the price point "appears" worth it, but trust, there are better ones out there with similar or the same prices. (World Gym in Calgary for one).

Maybe a little too warm for me The layout was good and the equipment was also good. No complaints here...except when i was visiting the last day . Some one had broken into the lockers in the ladies room. So be warned ..bring a good lock or put your things in a place with more foot traffic. The front desk wasnt staffed at all times .

Okay listen aside from the kind of, well, very high pressure sales tactics they used to get me in…read morehere, nothing they said was invalid and at the end of the day, they were mostly right about everything and I've been 100% happy with my experience. Every gym employs these same sales tactics so, at this point it's nothing new. And besides, if you didn't have someone telling you to get your butt to the gym you probably wouldn't go to start with. My story: I have a triple curve scoliosis in my spine. I've been living with back pain my whole adult life and it was starting to make me very miserable, chronic pain all the time. After chatting about this with my sales consultant they recommended Josh Deck as my personal trainer to address this issue and also my weight loss goals albeit they're the lesser of the two issues. I will say this, the small price I've paid to see him 12 times has resolved my daily back pain 100%. He's got me working hard but also being realistic about what I can manage in my day to day life and routine. It's been so helpful in fact I'm going to keep training with him for as long as I can. I cant say enough great things about Josh as a trainer but I am a special case, training may not be useful for everyone but certainly useful if you've got goals, timelines or a special case injury. The facility: has everything you need and the group classes are included in your very basic monthly membership and they have a very rich schedule to suit everyone's needs. Things are clean and there is always a cardio machine even at 5PM! ALSO - If you have kids, they have a day care facility right in the gym for a tiny little $4 fee for 2 hours. I came to this same Worldhealth in 2005 and left because at the time it was very male centric and desperately needed renos. Which now, the renos are great, layout is functional, they replace broken things quickly, change rooms are nice and honestly the staff know my name and are super helpful and friendly to me all the time. The price is competitive. The location is easy to get to. Free no hassle parking. All girls room which is nice for those awkward times. The demographic is also completely mixed in age, gender and body types. I'm happy and would recommend it to friends for sure :)

Please stay far FAR away from this gym…read more they have super deceptive business practices especially against young adults that will lock you into contracts and coaching you do NOT need. I had no idea what i was getting into years ago when i signed up for this gym, i thought i was getting a good deal on coaching and the place looks nice, but the payments will drown you. If you ever think about canceling, good luck. They will only freeze your account, and force you to pay the full years long term + some extra hidden fees. Save yourself the stress and go to literally any other gym in Calgary, hands down this is the worst one I've ever went to throughout my whole life.

I found golds had all the equipment I wanted, and wasn't over crowded, even at prime times - it was kind of dark, and dirty feeling though , with a lot of damaged cardio equipment - so in my opinion , overpriced for my needs and taste. There were a lot of people there who really looked like they knew what they were doing - lots of free weights , cardio machines, weight machines, cable decks, etc - even a punching bag area and boxing area and showers and sauna - a shop with supplements and shakes too. The prices weren't posted, and when I asked beyond the first person who tried to sell me the 50$/m I was told if they aren't sales, they can't even give me guidance on typical pricing , so I felt like something fishy was going on - no one asked me if I enjoyed my trial or followed up with me after - I went back to my old gym, crowded, but bright, cheaper, and they say hi when they see me.

Classes in these facilities can encourage you to do a certain exercise and lift the weight however you can. Fitness Fix is different in that the classes are group sessions with Denise instructing every step of the way. Using her knowledge of kineseology, physics and Muscle Activation Technique, she does a warm up to get all the appropriate muscles "firing" so that when we move to a certain exercise, the correct muscle is doing the work without other muscles compensating and helping. She can adjust an exercise for a persons specific need or injury by cuing them to adjust the exercise Gear a class for who is there and what issues they might have.
